Once again the same plot
"Behind Your Touch" is a comedy that recently landed on Netflix. It tells the story of a veterinarian named Ye Bun, who gains superhuman powers by chance. Everything would sound quite typical if it weren't for the fact that her powers are activated only when she touches someone's buttocks. Yes, our main character must touch everyone to see their memories. Quite a unique power, isn't it?
In the small town where she lives, two men appear. The first one is a Seoul police officer named Jang Yeol, who seems to have a grudge against Ye Bun from the beginning when he accuses her of harassment. The second newcomer is a handsome young man, a rarity in the town, named Sun Woo. For K-pop fans, Sun Woo is played by SU HO from EXO!
If you're familiar with shows like "The Girl Who Sees Smells" or "He Is Psychometric," you'll likely guess that there's also a criminal subplot. Suddenly, a serial killer appears in the small town, and each of the characters begins to suspect each other and their neighbors in the search for the culprit. Honestly, I don't consider this production to be of high quality, especially given that there are previous dramas about superpowers in the police, as mentioned earlier. Therefore, it seems they revisited the same theme but added the buttocks-touching element for humor.
The main characters, Jang Yeol, played by Lee Min Ki (The Beauty Inside), and Ye Bun, portrayed by Han Ji Min (One Spring Night), have an enemies-to-lovers relationship, but don't expect a full-fledged romance. The drama focuses mainly on the criminal aspects, leading to a rather complex storyline. Just when you think you know who the killer is, there's a sudden plot twist that will leave you surprised.
I'm somewhat disappointed that the main character discovered her talent and initially practiced it on animals, but then completely switched to humans. I think even without the criminal plot, the drama would have been much more interesting. I wouldn't lump it together with "He is Psychometric" and similar dramas.
After the drama, you can expect a lot of comedy. I can't even count how many times funny situations occurred or how many times the storyline made me laugh. However, there's one downside to this production: its length. For me, the story could have been told in 12 episodes, and the remaining 4 episodes felt like unnecessary stretching of some plot points. At times, I found myself feeling bored, and if it weren't available in its entirety, I might not have finished watching it.
In summary, it seems that they had an idea for the drama, though not necessarily an original one. After so many years and titles on air, it's difficult to come up with something completely unique. Nevertheless, I expected something better, and I think it ranks lowest among the three titles I mentioned. Additionally, I didn't like how many characters died and how it was portrayed; it felt like I was watching a horror film where only a few people make it out of the town alive. There were surprises and laughs, but is that enough?
